The paper shows that B. subtilis adapts to Pseudomonas inhibition by evolving mutations in biofilm regulator genes, improving root colonization.

This study investigates the spatiotemporal dynamics of ICEBs1 propagation in biofilms, finding that transconjugant cells drive efficient horizontal gene transfer.

This study identifies purine biosynthesis as a key pathway upregulated during biofilm formation in Gram-positive bacteria, suggesting it as a potential anti-biofilm target.

This study shows that Bacillus subtilis UD1022 reduces Sinorhizobium meliloti biofilm formation and nodulation efficiency through quorum quenching activity.

This study shows surfactin production is not essential for pellicle or root-associated biofilm formation in Bacillus subtilis, but reduces colony expansion.
